Although the only certain thing on planet Earth for man is death, he is always taken by surprise when it actually happens! This is the most surprising thing about man.
A small story:
A lady was celebrating her 100th birthday.(Laughter!)
Her entire family was there for the occasion.
They were opening all the gifts and reading all the cards that had been received from family and friends.
They showed the lady one card that had been sent by her friend who was 94 years old.
The lady shrieked, “God! She is still alive!”
We are able to apply death to everyone else except us! We are all like this. Everything in life we are prepared for except our own death. The irony is, everything in life is so unpredictable except death; the only certain thing in life is death. But the last thing we would like to be told is that sooner or later we are going to die!
